    Larry, in Sept I was bring my coupe thru San Dimas when it lost a leg. Still need to get a metalsmith to make me a new leg for my coupe.

    Lucky for me Morty let me drive the "Jive Five" back to Missouri rather than have me hitch hiking!! Sure am good at being Lucky, Bob

    That car makes my chest hurt.

    It is just perfect.

    Whats the drive-train. It looks like a banjo rear - what else?

    I always thought that coupe had the ultimate stance. With those fenders hugging those white walls and that sinister chop. Few things are nirvana and this is one of them.

    John's Jive : We had to stay someplace & Hooters seemed like a nice place for a 32 to rest!!!

    I was lucky enough to ride shotgun with Bob from L.A. Here's the typical pose whenever we stopped.

    I don't know if Bob knows everyone, but I'm pretty sure it's darn close.

    John's Rolling Bones 32 sure looks great.

    John had it chopped another 1 1/2" since Bonneville 09 when you took those pics!!!!

    He wants it to have the "Sinister Look"

    Is that the body that was chopped at Rolling Bones hot rod shop and featured in Street Rodder? Kind of looks like it might be.

    I hung out with the RB crew and John (I think) while at the Fathers day show in 2006. That was the biggest eye opening exsperience of my life. Met all the hot rod "rock stars" and found that most of em are the coolest dudes out there. Also met Cshabang too! That trip really changed my life.

    Yes, thats me in the blue next to Johns car while on some shop tours :D Cshabang, remember that trip?

    John's ***** with 1" additional out of the rear & 1 1/2" out of the front. John needed the "Bad Boy" look on one of his fleet of 32's.
